## What it is
A community-maintained library of BadUSB payloads for the Flipper Zero, organized into categories like exfiltration, phishing, remote_access, and recon. It aggregates Flipper-friendly HID attack scripts in one repository so users can pull updates, similar to an IRDB for payloads.

## Use cases
- find badusb payloads for flipper zero
- download ducky script payloads for usb hid attacks
- browse community pentest payload collection
- get recon and exfiltration scripts for flipper
- contribute badusb payloads to a shared library
- learn how badusb payloads are written

## When to choose
- you own a Flipper Zero and want a curated payload library
- you want a centralized, git-pullable collection of community payloads
- you are studying USB HID attack techniques for authorized security testing

## When to avoid
- you need a tool or runtime to execute payloads rather than a payload collection
- you want staged payload hosting or a CDN for deploying code to targets
- you need payloads for devices other than Flipper Zero without adaptation

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: security, penetration-testing, developer-tools
- domain: security, penetration-testing, hardware
- platform: cross-platform, embedded
- tags: flipper-zero, badusb, rubber-ducky, payloads, usb-hid, pentest
